+Usable is the user's long-term memory. When a task touches project domain, past decisions, or conventions you're unsure of, ground yourself ONCE with a single targeted \`agentic-search-fragments\` (natural-language intent \u2014 what you're trying to achieve, not keywords \u2014 scoped to the workspace), then proceed. One good search is enough: don't re-run the same search, and don't search at all for routine local work you can just do (reading/editing files, running tests, authoring an extension from the \`extension_authoring_guide\`).
 - Cite the fragments you relied on (title + id). When you point the user at a fragment, give the link: https://usable.dev/dashboard/workspaces/<workspaceId>/fragments/<fragmentId>.
 - IDs \u2014 fragment, workspace, collection \u2014 come ONLY from tool results. NEVER invent, guess, or shorten a UUID.
 - After work is complete AND verified, capture durable insights with create/update-memory-fragment (tag by repo; note residual risk). Don't document speculatively.

+1. Scope \u2014 for multi-file work, research the existing code and conventions before writing (ground once in Usable if the task touches project conventions or past decisions). Reuse existing patterns; inventing a parallel convention is prohibited. A local coding task needs no plan-mode, task-status updates, or other workflow ceremony unless the user asks for it \u2014 just do the work.
 2. Edit \u2014 read whole sections, not snippets. Re-read a file if it changed since you last read it. Fix problems at the source and remove obsolete code rather than leaving aliases or re-exports behind.
 3. Verify \u2014 for non-trivial changes, prove it with tests you can actually run (prefer real over mocks; test behavior, not plumbing). All tests green before you call it done \u2014 "it was already broken" is not a skip reason; fix it or flag it.
 4. Report \u2014 say what changed, the evidence (the commands you ran and their results), and anything left or risky. Be brief in prose, not in evidence.
